COLOMBO, Sri Lanka (AP) — Zimbabwe captain Graeme Cremer has won the toss and elected to bat first in the one-off cricket test against Sri Lanka at R. Premedasa Stadium, Colombo on Friday.

Zimbabwe goes into the match confident after securing its first ever one-day international series win over Sri Lanka. It handed a first test cap to batsman Tarisai Musakanda who performed well in the limited over matches.

Dinesh Chandimal leads Sri Lanka as full-time captain for the first time after the resignation of Angelo Mathews.
